After two years without it, Lowcountry beer lovers can look forward to Charleston Beer Fest again. The festival will take place on from 1-7 p.m. Oct. 22 at Riverfront Park.

The festival includes regional breweries, beer games, food trucks, craft vendors and home brewers. Music will be performed live by several bands, according to a news release.

“Palmetto Community Care is excited we can bring back Charleston Beer Festival this year to celebrate regional breweries and businesses and bring the community together after a two-year hiatus,” Bradley Childs, CEO of Palmetto Community Care, said in the release. “The proceeds from Beer Fest, celebrating its 10th year, will go to expand medical services and help the community, which is something I think we can all raise a glass to.”

Palmetto Community Care is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for persons living with HIV/AIDS and providing HIV prevention resources for schools, churches, community organizations, and the workplace in Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties.

Tickets are available now. General Admission, VIP packages and designated driver ticket options are available. VIP tickets include early access at noon on the day of the festival, extra beer tickets, and other perks, the release said.
